Loudoun Youth Initiative looking for governors

Attention Teens: community service opportunity available from the Loudoun Youth Initiative. See their website for more details: http://loudounteens.org/

The Youth Advisory Council (YAC) is a unique organization which provides opportunities for Loudoun County youth to excel. The YAC is a special program within the Loudoun Youth Initiative. As a member of the Board of Governors you would be in a position to advocate on behalf of all Loudoun County teens to elected officials and other community leaders, and would be responsible for representing the efforts and events of the YAC to your respective school community. This is accomplished while working with your peers, community members, and local government to create solutions to some of the most important issues facing teens in Loudoun County.

Beyond advocating for all Loudoun teens, the Board of Governors also provides social and developmental opportunities. The Board of Governors plans special events, organizes and participates in community service projects, and provides leadership development workshops for Loudoun teens. Members of the Board of Governors are expected to attend all monthly meetings from September through May. Additionally, Governors are expected to participate to the best of their ability in the community service, special events, and leadership development opportunities.
